Today, GRAMMY winner Cardi B released the music video for "Press," her second single of the year, which she dropped on May 31. The gritty, NSFW visual was directed by Jora Frantzis, who also led the rapper's "Money" video, and features a well-dressed (and sometimes not-dressed, yet semi-censored), vindictive Cardi murdering a lot of people.
The new video follows her performance of the song at the BET Awards on June 23. Offset and Cardi opened the show with "Clout," their collab on his Father Of 4 album, as she delivered her verses while giving him a lap-dance and then took center stage for "Press."
Cardi took home two BET Awards that night, for Best Female Hip-Hop Artist and Album of the Year for Invasion Of Privacy, her GRAMMY-winning debut studio album. Asserting their place as hip-hop's premier power couple, Offset also took home a win, for Best Group as one-third of Migos.
In February, at the 61st GRAMMY Awards, the rap queen made history as the first-ever woman to win the GRAMMY for Best Rap Album, also for 2018's Invasion Of Privacy. Shortly after the momentous win, she released her first single since the album on Feb. 15, "Please Me" featuring Bruno Mars.

She has yet to announce a follow up LP, but "Press" follows as her second new release of the year. In addition to her spot on Offset's track, the prolific rapper's other 2019 features include a spot on DJ Khaled's "Wish Wish," along with 21 Savage, and "Rodeo" by Lil Nas X.
